The solution is to find the highest quality and most economical local producer and go on about your day producing the most value in your community that you can, which is hopefully more than creating a few dozen eggs a day for yourself.

Ill share the eggs chum i dont mind. Ill even give you some chickens and show you how to deal with them. Iswear they will be even cheaper than dime a dozen. Hell you may have extra.
